"Calling All Women"

Aloha Paddlers,

Just wanted to share with you some upcoming events with the Women’s Ministry.

New Hope O'ahu Woman's Ministry is having our first ever Woman's Ministry Missions Brunch at the Lead Center, 290 Sand Island Road on Saturday, August 8! Our exciting guest speaker will be Darlene Cunningham, who, together with her husband Loren, founded Youth With a Mission (YWAM) over 30 years ago and has been involved in missions work ever since.

She'll be giving us miraculous reports about what God is doing around the world, and we'll hear testimonies from four inspiring missionaries. The cost for this delicious brunch and wonderful program is only $15. We'll also be taking an offering to bless our missionaries. Please don't miss this beautiful, uplifting morning.

Tomorrow, Thursday is the last day for registration. Please consider joining us by emailing Cheyanne, roxyann811@yahoo.com to save your spot.

You’ve been serving tirelessly and selflessly in ministry, are you looking for the next level? Would you like to find a place to hear the Word of God from a woman’s perspective? I strongly believe that we can continue to serve Him with excellence if we can find that safe place to learn to become more like Jesus. Women in the Word has successfully been bringing women closer to Him through the Tuesday evening studies. Please prayerfully consider joining us. This may be the opportunity to fulfill your discipleship needs.

Women in the Word Bible study begins Tuesday, August 11, 6:30 at the LEAD Center. Come and for the study and fellowship. No preregistration necessary.

This 7 week study is called “Snapshots of Jesus”

If you had a photo album, full of snapshots of Jesus, what would He look like? Cameras weren’t around when Jesus walked the earth, but for centuries, artists have painted Him, based on word-pictures given in the Bible.

For example, you might have seen a rendering of Jesus, carrying a lamb on His shoulders, since He called Himself “the Good Shepherd” and invites us to think of Him in that way. Perhaps you’ve seen a painting of Jesus with a glowing halo, carrying a lantern to light the darkness, inspired by His statement “I am the Light of the World.”

In this course, we’ll be studying six verbal “snapshots” of Jesus taken from the Scriptures. As we study each one, we want to focus on the reality behind the image and get to know Him better and allow Him to minister to us.

Please contact me if you have any questions or concerns.

With you, serving Him,

arlene
